The AGB Search team mourns the loss of Dr. Susan Whealler Johnston, who passed away on August 12. Dr. Johnston, who served as president and CEO of NACUBO and was previously Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer at AGB (Association of Governing Boards of Universities and Colleges), was a powerful advocate for student success in higher education and was instrumental in shaping the future of the business officer profession.
"The AGB Search family is deeply saddened by the passing of Susan, our dear colleague and friend,” said Managing Principal Rod McDavis. “She will be sorely missed."
Susan was preceded in death by her husband Joe Johnston, who served as Director of AGB Search's Interim Search division and our Compensation Evaluation Service, as well as Senior Consultant, at AGB Search. Our thoughts go out to their family at this difficult time.
AGB Search Principal Kim Bobby speaks with Barbara J. Lawrence, Rider University's VP of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion/Chief Diversity Officer, about what it takes for institutions to support this work.
